From The West”. Oliver is now pursuing a solo avenue with his soon

Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping
celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead
singer Freddie Mercury. Freddie defied stereotypes and shattered
convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the
planet.

The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their
iconic songs and revolutionary sound. They reach unparalleled
success, but in an unexpected turn Freddie, surrounded by darker
influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his solo career. Having
suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages
to reunite with his bandmates just in time for Live Aid.

While
bravely facing a recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in
one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. Queen
cements a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and
music lovers to this day.

An epic portrayal of the events surrounding
the infamous 1819 Peterloo Massacre, where a peaceful pro-democracy
rally at St Peter's Field in Manchester turned into one of the
bloodiest and most notorious episodes in British history.

The massacre saw British government forces
charge into a crowd of over 60,000 that had gathered to demand
political reform and protest against rising levels of poverty. Many
protesters were killed and hundreds more injured, sparking a
nationwide outcry but also further government suppression.

The Peterloo Massacre was a defining moment in
British democracy which also played a significant role in the
founding of The Guardian newspaper.
